(Save as Animation!) Do this for each frame that has a white background. I tested it by creating a simple HTML page with a black background that displayed the modified animated GIF image. You may have to click on several places in the background to get isolated spots of white. I think I've covered all the details?

[Gimp-user] Background to transparent
I've been trying to do something really simple and just not quite getting it. I have a small animated gif (http://dating.blameitonlove.com/mods/smileys/images/roll.gif) and I want to turn the white background transparent. Is there an obvious way to do this that I'm missing? -- http://dating.blameitonlove.com/ ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
